Materials, he added, can probably be purchased from Nome dealers, but if it is necessary a list of materials unobtainable, will be wired here as soon as possible. FERA funds now available, he said, are sufficient for clearing up the city and immediate relief, but an additional $50,000 will be needed to insure adequate relief during the winter months. The Central Committee was praised by him for the competent manner in which it is handling the situation. Mr. Taylor expected to leave Nome today for Anchorage by plane if weather conditions per- mitted. Unfavorable flying weather had prevented N. Lester Troast from coming to Nome from Kivi- lina. He will make the trip as soon as it clears off.

Mournful Scene At the pit's mouth miners and women are standing in a pouring rain waiting for news. Now and then one faints, collapsing into pools of water. Clergymen are sting in filling sand bags which arc used in fight- ing the fire, one crying quietly as he worked as boys are trapped in the mine. Nearly 400 men were in the workings at the time of the blast but it is said more than half were in a part of the mine far from where the fire ‘is raging and made their way out unharmed. The others were working more than one and one half miles from the mouth of the pit. BBt o2 B (B FAMOUS PIONEER, 84 YEARS OLD, SUCCUMBS' William H.
